Chapters
00:00 - Cover of Fleetwood Mac "Dreams"


Notes
Well kids, after two days of rehearsal….this crack band of unstable musicians is ready to tackle the job of being the house band for a CRS (Country Radio Seminar) luncheon for all the high brow country music types….we are backing 8 different artists doing 2 songs each…Larry had to be at the venue at fucking 7:30am this morning friends…sweet Jesus.

The young lady singing in the first part of the video is Laci Kaye Booth...she won one of those TV singing shows...super nice gal, she told me she was from Texas, and she was aghast when i told her i was from Cleveland, like most people are.
